AMAZING CREW
I did the Discover Lanai’i trip and I would like to take a moment to thank the most stellar crew imaginable. Captain Casey, Mario, Jackie, Tyler, and Willie were a pleasure to sail with. Each one of them took the time to talk with everyone on board and learn names and stories. They had an infectious energy that made it clear that they love what they do. Many thanks to each of them for going above and beyond!
We were just so well taken care of and had such a lovely time. Seems like the crew was always there when you needed them, and there was always a delicious snack whenever you got hungry. The snorkeling was great and we saw the most amazing giant sea turtles at the second location. We also saw so many whales on the way there and back! One swam right next to the boat! One of the best things we did in Maui, period.
AWESOME !!!!
These guys are a class act! Did the snorkeling adventure and was more than impressed. Captain and deck mates were unbelievable and made out experience that much better. Saw whales, got to sail and of course went “under the sea” I would highly recommend booking with this group.
BEST PART OF OUR TRIP
Trilogy excursions go above and beyond for their customers! From start to finish, the whole experience was amazing! Captain Jeff and Captain Kama did a fantastic job navigating us out on the ocean, Vanessa & Ashley are avid whale enthusiasts who did a lot of teaching and helped everyone while snorkeling, and Tiger did a great job with snuba education and all around customer service. Breakfast and lunch were provided which was fantastic! We saw whales, turtles, and fish! We couldn’t have been any more pleased with our experience! Thank you Trilogy!
My husband and I are in Maui for our 10 year Anniversary. We booked a snorkeling adventure with Trilogy Excursions. They picked us up at the beach to start the day. The crew was great! They treated everyone on the tour like Kings and Queens! They had expert advice, were very friendly and an A+ group to be on board with! The breakfast, lunch, dessert and drinks were great!! Captain Kevin, co-captain Carrie, 1st Mate Lowell and SNUBA dive instructor Randy were great! We highly recommend them if you like a great time and water fun!!
WHAT A CREW! WHAT A DAY! A BIT OF EVERYTHING!!!
Trilogy with Captain Jeff and Willy took us on the snorkel trip to Molokini. Safety was first and FUN!!! Brendan was a treat...the type of crew, lifeguard who makes you feel comfortable . There was humour and the food was fantastic. They all worked together to make the first snorkelling experience in Maui so great! Every question answered...every comment informative. We even had a huge humpback whale breach ...on command , at least it seemed that way. The ship was organized, spotless and comfortable...the cushions and tables on deck were just right. Loved the personal touches ...loved the professionalism and the safety of passengers was always key! Just a great experience snorkelling and learning about the beautiful ocean of the Hawaiian islands. Thank you Brendan! Jeff and Willy ...memories of Hawaii will get us to our next visit ...everyone should go on this adventure!!!
Each year, Blue’Aina devotes one trip during Maui’s winter months for citizen science and education, typically focusing on the thousands of humpback whales that visit our warm waters. Kicking off 2019, our January Blue’Aina was hosted aboard the Trilogy I and delighted volunteers, non-profit recipients, and our sponsors to one truly epic educational Whale Watch!
